She now finds herself in a private school with lots of money surrounded by girls who also have lots of money. They spend it freely. Finally Harper's dad gets tired of how Harper is spending and decides she needs to get back to "the old Harper". So he sends her to summer camp with her brother. She has a hard time adjusting to camp. But eventually she finds herself again. This book was a very fun read. The scenarios presented were realistic. It is a good book on friendship and being true to oneself. The characters were relatable and enjoyable. I would recommend this book. In fact, I passed it to a friend who loves to read YA. Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . I enjoyed reading this book. The story reminded me of the days I spent at summer camp as a tween. The story was well thought out, and the characters were easy to take an interest in. Quick read for the poolside. As a parent of teenagers I was pleased with how "clean" the author kept the story. Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . Oh, to be young again and only worry about myself. Summer camp, for the entire summer, is used as a punishment for a young, high-spending, social butterfly by her parents to ground her in a world where money and clothes do not define a person. They want her to learn what is important to make a life. While she doesn't believe her parents, and starts out feeling her life, or at least her summer, is ruined beyond repair, she does find her better self. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
